3 Phase Power vs Single Phase Power • OEM Panels
"Dual Phase or Split Phase power is also Single Phase because it’s a two wire Alternating Current (AC ) power circuit. In the US, this is the standard household power arrangement with two (Phase A, Phase B) 120V power wires (180 degrees out of phase with one another) and one neutral wire."

If he's doing that, he'd be using a capacitor to simulate a second phase.
It would be better (as in more efficient) to just connect the tesla on a high current breaker (like 30 amps or 50 amps if your line can handle it), and via software just ask the car to charge faster.
I don't know if they are limited in drawing up to 15 amps, or if they allow you to set the current?
